About Me

I'm a stay-at-home mom of two little girls (a 6 year old and 3 year old). I have been running for about 9 years, and over the years have become very involved in running outreach.

I love being an active part of the Dallas running community. In addition to my own running and racing, I hold or have held the following roles here in Dallas-Fort Worth:

• Executive Race Director of Heels and Hills (2009- early 2011), a non-profit dedicated to changing lives one mile at a time which produces the Heels and Hills Half Marathon and Heels and Hills and Him Half Marathon, both in Irving
• One half of the duo of Love The Half (2010-2011), which was all about celebrating the half marathon distance and those who participate in races of that distance or longer
